- Inside El Pica 1 in Texcoco, Mexico, the original barbecue of the Americas is still being cooked low and slow inside of pit ovens. The restaurant’s lamb barbacoa recipe starts with wrapping lamb in long maguey leaves, and cooking it overnight for 11 hours to create a tender barbacoa full of sweet and smoky flavors. The restaurant sells around 500 pounds of barbecue every weekend for $10 a pound, serving nearly 1,200 people in two days.
We visited El Pica 1 to see how to make their lamb barbacoa, and what it takes to make such Big Batches.

How 500 Pounds Of Lamb Barbacoa Is Cooked Every Weekend In Texcoco, Mexico | Big Batches
When a chef loves his craft. You taste it in the food. The effort and time to make this is amazing. This man loves the art of it all and it shows
Love the family & community atmosphere!!
Americans & Canadians have lost out way and ache for that connection again.
It’s not luck, it’s work, it’s consistency
True words to live by
I love Mexico 🇲🇽 greetings from Serbia 🇷🇸 brothers ❤️
blessings to you compa!
Respect brother

Lord have mercy. Ima cook Lamb one day like this when I get my own place. Mexican food is my top 3 food on the list. Can never get enough of it.
As a New Zealander all I can say is for anyone who eats meat there is literally nothing more delicious than Lamb. But watching these people working together is just so meaningful to me because coming together to cook and eat together is such an intimate, bonding moment.
It's something we all share and whether it's family, friends or even complete strangers. Breaking bread together or in this case cooking lamb its the ultimate human experience.
Your country has my thanks for exporting the best quality lamb
@@nottsoserious Your country has my thanks for inventing disco everytime I take a bite of a Cerviche, Chimichanga or a Seafood Taco I feel like Saturday Night Fever!

This is located at La Purisima, Texcoco. I have eat there several times and it never disappoints, the place is really pretty some tables are "private" and surrounded by trees (very unique) and the pulque they sell is top notch.
What is pulque?
@@niceguy6152 Is an alcoholic beverage made of agave nectar. It was considered the drink of the gods by the Aztecs.
@@niceguy6152 primo de la pulga
@@niceguy6152 the white drink ppl were drinking in the video
@@niceguy6152 pulque it's a fermented drink from the maguey, the same plant used to cover the meat.
It's easy to imagine the Toltecs or even the Olmecs cooking this way. This guy's passion is evident and I'm sure you can taste the love.

When barbacoa is made like this en posos (underground ovens) you know it’s great.

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20
Revelation 6 1st Seal: White horse = Roman Empire conquering nations under Trajan 98-117 AD & Gospel spreading rapidly. 2nd Seal: Red horse, bloody civil wars with 32 different Emperors, most killed by the sword. 185-284 AD 3rd Seal: Black horse, economic despair from high taxes to pay for wars, farmers stopped growing. 200-250 AD 4th Seal: Pale horse, 1/4th of Romans died from famine, pestilence; at one point 5,000 dying per day. 250-300 AD 5th Seal: Diocletian persecuted Smyrna church era saints for ten years, blood crying out for vengeance. 303-312 AD 6th Seal: Political upheaval in the declining Roman Empire while the leaders battled each other. 313-395 AD
Revelation 7 Sealing of 144,000, the saints, before trumpet war judgments, which led to the fall of the Roman Empire.
Revelation 8 1st Trumpet: Alaric and the Goths attacked from the north, the path of hail, and set it on fire. 400-410 AD 2nd Trumpet: Genseric and the Vandals attacked the seas and coastlands, the blood of sailors in water. 425-470 AD 3rd Trumpet: Attila and the Huns scourged the Danube, Rhine & Po rivers area, dead bodies made water bitter. 451 AD 4th Trumpet: Odoacer and the Heruli caused the last Western Emperor (sun), Senate (moon) to lose power. 476 AD With the Western Roman Emperor (restrainer of 2 Thes. 2) removed; the son of perdition Popes took power.
Revelation 9 Two woe judgments against the central 1/3rd and eastern 1/3rd of the Roman Empire. 612-1453 AD 5th Trumpet: Locust & scorpions point to Arabia, the rise of the Muslim army. Islam hides Gospel from Arabs. 612-762 AD 6th Trumpet: Turks released to attack Constantinople with large cannons (fire, smoke, brimstone). 1062-1453 AD
Revelation 10 The little book is the printed Bible, which was needed after the Dark Ages when Scriptures were banned by Popes.
Revelation 11 7th Trumpet: Martin Luther measured Roman Church; found that it’s an apostate church, not part of true temple. The two witnesses are the Scriptures and saints who proclaim the pure Gospel and testify against the antichrist Popes. Papal Church pronounced Christendom dead in 1514 AD. Silence for 3.5 years. Then Luther posted his 95 Thesis, which sparked the Protestant Reformation and brought the witnesses back to life. Millions of Catholics were saved.
Revelation 12 Satan used the Roman Empire to try to wipe out the early Church, Satan was cast down as the Empire collapsed.
Revelation 13 The antichrist beast Popes reigned in power 1,260 years, 538-1798, is the little horn of Daniel 7, son of perdition. The false prophet Jesuit Superior General rose to power from land (earth) of Vatican and has created many deceptions.
Revelation 14 Points to great harvest during the Protestant Reformation & wrath on Catholic countries who obey antichrist Pope.
Revelation 15 Overcoming saints victorious over the beast. Prelude to 7 vials and judgment on those who support Papal Rome.
Revelation 16 1st Vial: The foul sore of atheism was poured out on Catholic France, leaving them with no hope, led to revolution. 2nd Vial: The French Revolution started in 1793, killed 250,000, as France had obeyed the Pope and killed saints. 3rd Vial: The French Revolution spread to rural areas of France, where Protestants had been killed in river areas. 4th Vial: The bloody Napoleonic wars shed the blood of countries who had revered and obeyed the antichrist Pope. 5th Vial: Judgment on the seat of the beast. Papal States invaded in 1798, Pope imprisoned, removed from power. 6th Vial: The Turks vast domain dried up, they were only left with Turkey. They lost control of Palestine in 1917 AD, Israel became a nation again in 1948
I think there is something quite special that even though there is demand for it he keeps the capacity he can sustain, plus 500 pounds and sells out weekly is absolutely astonishing. I love the care, time, and effort that goes into all aspects of making something the traditional way. I hope they continue to have success for generations to come ☺
This exactly.
It's intelligent planning and guests expect every week the same. Come early to get the choice cuts and when it's sold out, we must return next week.
Working friends are compensated and the operation can continue with a repeated perfect formula .
The process, technique, all is so special to see.
I love how my parents would take me and my younger siblings to Texcoco, Mexico every year during school vacation the food was always great. I now have 3 homes in texcoco and will be taking my kids in December for 2 weeks let’s hope they like the food.
Omg that’s why a love Mexico every dish has a lot of work put into. Everything is from scratch and fresh.
You can tell Saul is truly in love with his craft
This looks amazing. The only barbacoa i have had was in Chicago, a place with terrific Mexican food, but this is definitely another level. 😋

LA & Chicago are honestly the only places you can find Mexican food outside of Mexico
This looks like absolutely the best food on earth. Have to try this before I leave this life.
You've never tried Authentic Mexican Food...you have not lived amigo...
I agree with the commenter above me. You are missing out. A lot of Mexican places around me don't carry lamb because it's a little bit pricier but carnitas are very similar just with pork instead of lamb.
I really wish more people would be willing to give Mexican food a try outside of just asada tacos and burritos. I wish more people know how delicious lengua, ojo, y cabeza are.

This is one big dedicated team. Props to the chefs!
Truly a labor of love.
Salute to them....
This looks divine, the foods, the people, everything!
The spirit, hardwork, camaraderie and dedication of these great people is amazing. I wish I could sample some of this delicious food!
If you are in the USA, you should able to find someone who cooks it. Mexicans are all over the states and Barbacoa is very popular. With that being said, there’s always someone makes it.
I regret watching this after I’ve already had dinner. Now I want to barbecue at 11 pm!
Man you really have to appreciate the ingenuity behind developing this technique. I don't know what the history of this method is but I'm really curious as to how it was developed. Not to mention the resulting food looks spectacular.
An ancient chef trying new methods. I too wish to know his/her name
Actually this way of cooking was developed by the Olmecs they wrapped the meat in banana leafs they transmitted this knowledge to the Aztecs, but in central mexico there are no banana trees, so they improvised with what they had, and there is plenty of maguey all over central Mexico. Mayans did the same, but with banana leafs annato seeds, local sour orange, and created cochinita pibil.
@@pablerry Bananas are not native to Mexico. The Olmec used avocado leaves. They still use avocado leaves in a lot of places.
@@icampos89 The Mayans used papaya leaves.
@@pablerryI think you mean Pencas De Maguey, they look like banana leaves but are way tougher and hold steam better.
This food is art and culture !
Bravo amigos 👍
The villages is where it’s at, the people are beautiful, the food is incredible with so much diversity, I am Aussie but we love Mexican food
Agreed!
Just too bad those god damn fuckin' hideous drug cartels are messing everything up.

I can almost smell all the wonderful flavors going on in this dish!! It looks delicious!! I want a taco!!
Omg with the butter soft hand made tortilla on the spot no wonder there always sell out 🔥
Omg I’m going to Mexico just for this
you make 35 minutes from the airport to that place... I live 5 minutes from there the pica #1
I’m really loving the shaded dining area. What an awesome atmosphere to eat in.
This looks immaculate! Wish I could taste it in this lifetime. 😋
This is God's gift to man and man's perfection at its finest. Amen to the love put into preparing the meal
Everytime I eat a barbacoa or a good mole I always get this huge sense of pride that the Raza has managed to preserve thousands of years of culinary tradition, going back to the old country and seeing the lady's make tortillas from scratch with a a metate is just an incredible experience. Plus the diversity of our cuisine is something that is extremely understated.
FYI-Mole does not rhyme with ole, therefore, the is no accent mark on the letter e.
There’s no é in mole.
Pochos gonna pocho.
Yeah I just found out that tamales go back thousands of yrs before Spain came to America, and also that the Apache Indians and other U.S Indians also have there version of tamales just shows how we're all connected
Thank you for correcting "mole" and I agree with you, the Raza ought to be extremely proud of not only culinary tradition, but the culture in general. Consider this: The combination of beans and rice creates a complete protein. Now, how on earth did the Aztecs and the Mayans figure this out thousands of years ago (beans and rice are a staple of Mexican cuisine)?
This video is good vibes all around. Love how happy and proud he is, he deserves it.
Bruh, $10 a lb is a freaking steal !
And its an expensive plate for what u usually pay for food in México.
In the US you can’t even find lamb but it would easily be $25 per lb of cooked lamb
Being a "live to eat" sort of foodie, food videos are always a treat to watch for me. Add to that the delicious, tender lamb that they probably cook here, every weekend, and my delight can be imaginable by all my fellow foodies out there.
But despite all this, my takeaway from this video today, is that one sentence of Saul that sums up the key to his success - "It's not luck. It's work. It's about being consistent."
And for this most important lesson of life, I thank you, Saul. I salute your hard work, my friend. I look forward to tasting your lamb barbacoa someday :(
I really like the fact that at 2:16 there is a sign at the back that says "We don't have Wi-FI here, now chat amongst yourselves"
Now I wanna build me one in my backyard. In the states people always telling everyone how barbecue started in the u.s somewhere in the northern states. And I am like wtf Barbecue started way before the English came to New world. I love the pit barbecue embedded in the ground like that.
“barbecue” traces their roots to the indigenous peoples of North and South America.
Rite I always say the only culture America got is southern culture and most of that is culture they adopted from the indigenous natives or Mexicans.
You don’t know really the flavor the tenderness the smell wen you get there the vibes something out of this world
I want to try this badly! Looks amazing. Great craft.
Barbacoa is my favorite Mexican indigenous cuisine
I'm not a big lamb guy but that looks phenomenal and I'll take 10
Making Barbacoa, is an art!! But, the taste is from another world!!! Chulada!!!
viva Mexico 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Very cool to see the traditional ways of cooking here I love it!
oh good lord i just finished my dinner and now im HUNGRY AGAIN
If anyone lives near, or is in SoCal, there are 2 locations of Aqui es Texcoco that serves the cuisine of the region, especially the bbq lamb. And chapulins. :)
Where?
Thank you! Just saw on Google Maps, only an hour away!
@@cadet526 Chula Vista
That restaurant is legit! My family and I love their barbacoa. Don't forget to ask for the consome, definitely a delicious combination.
Just looked at some pics, that looks like literally every other gringo restaurant, and it's obviously a mediocre imitation. Why do you say cuisine of the region? Texcoco is just outside of Mexico city, the place with the textbook example of the opposite to gringo imitations, so, don't say that's my land's cuisine, please 😐 if you like that, enjoy it, but don't be disrespectful.
Legendary, I gotta go try this
Wishing someday I could try this food and visit this country
Everything he does is similar to what we do in parts of India except the leaf being used is banana leaf. Once the meat is surrounded in the leaf, the whole thing put inside a jute bag and lowered into a pit which has coal or wood that was lit up a hrs before. Once lowered, the pit is filled with mud and allowed to cook for hours. Once done, the mud is removed, the jute bag is lifted up, then banana leaf is removed and then you have the cooked meat with all the spices added to it. But what is in this video is similar in idea, but I wonder what flavors that leaf adds. Great job and glad to see how well it was done and people enjoying it.
Yeah I think in the Yucatan peninsula they use this method with banana leaves to cook cochinita pibil.
In the northern part of Mexico we do it in a different style and we use beef. Both are really good. The majority of Mexicans go for barbacoa, bofes, and menudo every Sunday.

@@ultragamer4960 mane, y’all mf always putting your state in what ever convo.
We have so similiar kebabs in Turkey. So I can imagine how delicious those meat. Also looks extremely delicious with soft taco bread and salsa 🤤
Tacos Al Pastor are inspired by Arab Immigrants to Mexico, although now it’s made pork somewhat like Doner Kebab
This is nothing like the kebabs wtf dude do you see how long it takes and the whole process just enjoy and stop comparing
@@NoorAB23 we do use pits to cook lamb in Turkey and it tooks at least 24 hours or longer there are many types of kebab so you should maybe think and search before you comment
@@irmaktektir6583That is true, but it is much riskier as banana leaves but easily and the food is not always cooked. Volcanic rocks is what is missing in Middle Eastern pit cooking.
Those blue tortillas are my favorite to dip it in my consomé with a lot of salsa happy that Mexican cuisine has the respect and all my brothers and sisters around the world can enjoy it like we do
This Is almost like art. Ya esta comida es arte!
Now that is some mighty tasty looking grub!!!
Nothing like making some homemade grub that is made with heart and soul. Tastes so much better when you put the work into making it taste great.
...You don't get that from fast food joints like McNasty's.
Another thing to note is this BBQ is being done at high altitude, over 2,000m/7,000ft.
That is why you need to have plenty of moisture in your ovens. You have make adjustments compared to cooking at sea level.
I 👍
Their work ethics on point
It's steamed, barbecued and roasted at the same time!!!!! Taste must be amazing 😍😋😋😋😛
He is not giving up his secret method of knowing the ovens’ temperatures.
finallly, they are in mexico. they need to visit many places. there's a lot of food around the country and more countries of south america

Oh shit... XD
Glad to see the hygiene is a little better than those indian street videos 💯
Indian Food is awful tbh
What a beautiful video I feel so privileged. and gifted that my family and I cook this in my backyard here in Desert Hot Springs California. Yes, we cook it just like them. 😊
I grew up in Texcoco and yes, it is absolutely delicious. Also you should try in another place called Tezontepec in Hidalgo.

When he talked about salsa ft mexican romantic music in the backgroung was very romantic you can feel his love for his food and craft😊😊
no matter what part of south America you're in, the BBQ meats are amazing. I remember eating a BBQ chicken from a pink plastic bag in Colombia and savoring every bite.
mexico is in north america

Wow, that looks amazing!
very true words Saul says, "is not luck, it's hard work and consistency" very very true and can be applied to most every successful situation and i also admire how he rather offer a superb service and good food over mass produced product
Lamb barbacoa... I felt that 😍
The smile on Sauls face says it All...
VÍVAAA MÉXICOOO CABR0NES!!! 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Man, just the SIGHT of the lamb cooking hits me with so much nostalgia that I feel like I can smell and taste it through my tablet. My Abuelita wasn't a big fan of lamb but we still do the deep pit style barbacoa carnitas.
A lot of people slept on barbacoa like this because it used to be cooked in an actual dirt hole. Line the hole with big green leaves, wrap the meat up and toss it into the hole with charcoal. Then you bury it for a few hours. Most places that make it don't use dirt holes anymore but the technique is basically the same.
Long story short, deep pit barbeque makes some of the most tender, juicy, smoky, savory, spicy and sometimes sweet meat you will ever have. If I was going to pick one dish to give to someone to judge the entire Mexican food culture on, it would probably be deep pit barbeque.
Yhea barbacoa from a hole is the best
Absolutely fascinating and wonderful!
Hey❤️ I may not know you personally however I care about you deeply because I know how much you mean to Jesus Christ The King of ALL CREATION . I want to tell you that Jesus Christ loves you so much, he died for our sins so that whoever believes in him wouldn’t have to perish in hell but instead have eternal life in heaven. You need to understand that HEAVEN and HELL are 1000% REAL they aren’t imaginary , and hell is a horrible place I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. God doesn’t want you to end up there he wants you in heaven and so he is giving you a chance to accept the sacrifice of his son Jesus Christ and be saved. Day by Day the world is falling apart because we are literally living in the last days of Earth there is no doubt or debate about it, Jesus Christ is coming faster then you think to bring judgement to the world and to destroy it. This really is URGENT, it’s NOT A JOKE ,Tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone, you can be alive one minute and gone the next, please take this opportunity to be on the side of Mercy confess your sins and wicked ways to Jesus , sincerely REPENT/turn away from them, ask for his forgiveness, and be baptized at a real bible believing church- ask him to enter your heart and to be your Lord and Savior before it is too late , truly believe in him and he WILL do it because it is his promise. It’s important that you seek the righteous and Holy path of the Most high God so that you may inherit eternal life and be spared of Hell fire. You can begin a new life in Christ and have a genuine relationship with him, please repent. Jesus changed my life and he will change yours too🥰, He is coming NOW! not SOON- when you least expect it!, therefore repent and make sure you are prepared. May the Lord be with you eternally💕🙏🏾
The best and original and star this deliciously barbacoa is the Actopan Hidalgo Mexico uju
We mexicans take food really serious, if anyone have the chance to come and taste that, you wouldn't want to leave.
That soup with the lamb dripping must be divine.
Hangover remedy ritgth there.
That looks delicious!!
Big batches is my favourite segment ❤🎉
Lamb is my favourite meat, its a staple in Australia. I was pretty surprised the first time I saw how popular it is in Mexico! I would really like to try Mexican lamb dishes, they are completely foreign to me and would be exciting to try.
Like lamb is really popular there, I wonder why its not much of a thing in the US? Is it more popular closer to the order maybe?
There is plenty near the border but there is nothing like Tescoco
@@kevinolguin9702that's awesome to know!
Lamb is very popular in the USA, but very expensive. We get it from Australia, and they charge too much for it.
The USA is more of a beef nation. There's just a lot more cattle ranches than there are lamb ones here. Cultural thing really. No one here is gonna turn down a good lamb chop though if you offer.
@@shinon748 exactly, I eat lamb when I can but it's so expensive compared to beef
I've never seen a restaurant that uses the pit bbq like this. So cool. You already know that ish is fire too. Those juices are probably some of the most flavorful shit you could come up with
If it was japan they would started by "it takes years to master and only few people left with this knowledge" you guys inflated japan
It doesn't take that long to learn how to make barbacoa.
“I spent years mastering the tamales”
Stupid hate for no reason lol
People looked down on Japanese food (and the people that made it!) too in the past. Let’s hope over time other foreign foods grow to have the *aura* that Japanese food has
Japan over-engineers everything for better or worse, yeah 90% of the authentic cuisine is usually specific to only a few types of people who master that one specific part of Japanese cuisine, your comment’s actually stupid.
Oh, to taste this barbecue is a gift feom Heaven! The experience is such that you never want it to end; as a Mexican I just recomend it!!
I rather have this than any fancy Michelin 🌟Restaurant in New York
FACT
That prep work is insane!
The dish looks delicious. Viva la Mexico.
the beauty of this combination of techniques is something else!
